Likelihood to Recommend I honestly cannot recommend this tool enough. Opal is such a valuable tool for brand content creators and there is nothing like it available. If you're serious about content marketing and have a need to find ways to collaborate, plan and provide more visibility among teams, then Opal really is the only way to go. One more thing that's not being mentioned: The tool is simply amazing but it's only as amazing is the team behind the tool. Their customer support and willingness to quickly be in touch when needed is a key feature within itself. Seriously, such a good team of people.
Read full review SalesPanda is great. It's a multifaceted user-friendly platform to find your target market, determine interest, and help drive your market. I've reviewed a LOT of software on this same platform and while I can sing the praises of this all day, it's not much different from the other software that's already readily available. I will say this is great for a mid-size agency, as there's no option to purchase separate components separately, and that can be a bit pricey.
Read full review Pros Content planning: you can look at one asset and see how it is being used across multiple channels by multiple teams. Content collaboration: it is really easy to see what other people and teams are contributing to an asset, or how they are using it. We can also duplicate content that was created by another team to use as a starting point in our own content collaboration. High level/big picture overview: Opal allows us to see content that is being created, planned and scheduled very easily; it goes beyond social content (which we can also see in Sprinklr) to show us content created across multiple channels. Read full review They offer a free trial – I know this sounds pretty basic, but not all software offers that. Especially in a market saturated with marketing campaign software, this is a HUGE plus. SalesPanda offers training through online webinars – there isn't a need to go searching around on YouTube if you don't understand something. Additional plus! Their customer support is top-notch. If we ever ran into an issue, we were never on hold for longer than a couple of minutes. Excellent attention to customer care. Read full review Cons No publishing capabilities, for the most part. No analytics tie-ins. Rather pricey. Requires someone to really manage the structure in order to keep the tool organized and use it effectively. When this is done right, though, it's worthwhile. Read full review We didn't like that SalesPanda came as an entire package (which can be pricey). It would be nice if you could purchase different parts of it separately. There's no A/B testing. This is something others offer that SalesPanda doesn't. While customer service is great, their business hours are a little wonky. I'd prefer to have 24/7 customer care rather than 8-5.

Read full review Zoho Campaigns is super affordable, but very basic with what you get. SalesPanda is similar, and while that may be appealing to a smaller company, I would say take the leap and spend the extra money. SalesPanda isn't perfect, but it's the best bang for your proverbial buck. Our clients have been very happy with the results.
Read full review Return on Investment Opal allows for more discipline in marketing as teams are better aligned on messaging and big moments. Opal cuts down on communication breakdowns and mistakes, which in the end leads to more happy customers. I think Opal provides the team with more confidence as everyone is on the same page. With everything in one place rather than communications being lost in emails, etc., everyone is more efficient and can work knowing that there is one source of truth. Read full review SalesPanda has given us a stable platform to advertise our clients' strengths through its easy-to-use content marketing tool They have templates that allow you to market initiatives to help boost productivity (by saving time). Definitely a plus. SalesPanda focuses on content and generating leads...we use it to post our clients content to blogs, case studies, etc. Very nice! Read full review ScreenShots
